About Cinch
Reimagine access. Reimagine ownership. Build the future with Cinch.
Cinch is Southeast Asia’s leading circular tech subscription company, redefining how people and businesses access technology. Instead of adding to the growing e-waste crisis, we enable affordable, sustainable access to devices through subscriptions that maximize reuse and extend their lifecycle. We operate across B2C, B2B, and B2B2C channels, including major partnerships with global leaders like Samsung. Our model sits at the intersection of powerful mega trends — sustainability, embedded finance, and the shift from ownership to access — creating a massive opportunity to reshape the future of tech consumption. At Cinch, we are builders with high standards, a bias for action, and a shared mission to create a generational company that outlasts us. Freshly funded by leading institutional investors and growing rapidly, we’re creating an environment where ambitious people can do the best work of their careers — and where the work has real, lasting impact.
The Role
This role sits at the intersection of strategy, finance, and business development — supporting Cinch's CEO directly on corporate development priorities. You'll work on initiatives that directly shape Cinch's next chapter, strategic partnerships at the corporate level, and market and competitive intelligence. This is a rare opportunity to see how a high-growth company thinks about its future from the inside.

- Unmatched access to a founder-CEO navigating fundraising, expansion, and strategic partnerships simultaneously
